Spring Grove safety committee still considering alert system
Spring Grove – The village hasn’t ruled out a community-alert system that could notify residents of weather emergencies by phone, text and e-mail messages.
The Spring Grove Safety Committee discussed the alert system at a meeting this week. Chairman Del Houghton said the committee was investigating whether the system would work as an auxiliary emergency warning system.
Houghton said the committee was consulting a number of provider companies.
One provider, Connect-CTY, gave a presentation at a Spring Grove Village Board meeting this month. Barrington Hills, Antioch and Wauconda have similar systems.
Houghton said discussion about the system would continue.
